| 19:55:00 | #FLNchat Starting in 5 minutes. We're talking about flexible learning tonight. | |
| 19:55 pm | #FLNchat starts in 5 minutes. Tonight's topic: How do we invite flexibility into our practice? | |
| 19:56 pm | RT @FLNchat: #FLNchat starts in 5 minutes. Tonight's topic: How do we invite flexibility into our practice? | |
| 19:58 pm | Most visible "flexibility" I see @ post secondary sites relates to flex learning in case of "pandemic". Why do we need disaster? #flnchat | |
| 20:00:00 | Welcome everyone! Some "rules" before we start: always add #flnchat in your message; add the Q number if you remember :-) | |
| 20:00:00 | @lkamsin Wait for it :-) #flnchat | |
| 20:02:00 | #flnchat My fingers are limber! Let's rock this party! Go, team! ... too much enthusiasm? Too much caffeine today. :) | |
| 20:03:00 | #flnchat Q0: Im faculty at Truro and have 9 days left in semester = uber flexible... | |
| 20:03:00 | Q0:: I'm Lorraine from the Annapolis Valley. We just wrapped up cohort 2 of Facilitating Flexible Learning #flnchat | |
| 20:03:00 | darn! I keep forgetting the #FLNchat! | |
| 20:04:00 | @FLNchat Q0: I'm Chris, teaching filmmaking for NSCC in Dartmouth. I'm using email and online tools to be more flexible. #FLNchat | |
| 20:05:00 | @bitdepth and you do yoga too :) does that count for flexibility? #FLNchat | |
| 20:05:00 | @ritastevens hey! welcome to #FLNchat! | |
| 20:05:00 | @stewarka I think we need training :):) #FLNchat | |
| 20:06:00 | Q1 :: Following from the last #flnchat, how do we invite flexibility into our practice? | |
| 20:06:00 | #flnchat how do you know how many ppl are following current chat? | |
| 20:06:00 | Q0: It was great Rita! #flnchat | |
| 20:06:00 | @randommind Flexibility in body, mind and spirit works for yoga and learning! #FLNchat | |
| 20:07:00 | @casey219 28 followers officially #flnchat | |
| 20:07:00 | @casey219 Lurkers don't show up, but only those who reply (and use the #FLNchat hashtag) get collected into the chat. | |
| 20:07:00 | Q1: hmmmm ... thinking ... why does this question seem so hard? #FLNchat | |
| 20:07:00 | #FLNchat Q1: with open arms | |
| 20:07:00 | @FLNChat - sorry I'm late - long day... #flnchat | |
| 20:08:00 | @hondomac you made it! #FLNchat | |
| 20:09:00 | @FLNchat Q1: We relax, let go of total control of the learning and listen and help people learn in a comfortable way. #FLNchat | |
| 20:09:00 | Q1: maybe you invite flexibility by being ok with not knowing ??? (still trying to figure this one out) #FLNchat | |
| 20:09:00 | @ritqstevens I think the lock means your tweets are restricted #flnchat | |
| 20:10:00 | Q1: someone told me once you have to be ok with ambiguity ... that makes sense to me #FLNchat | |
| 20:10:00 | Q1: #flnchat oh yeah Carolyn...making mistakes; learning with learners; from learners... | |
| 20:10:00 | A couple of people are using direct message instead of regular tweets. Check how you are sending your messages :-) #FLNchat | |
| 20:08:00 | @randommind Not knowing and being open to different ways of learning is important. #FLNchat It can be scary for learners and teachers. | |
| 20:08:00 | #FLNchat Flexibility for me means constantly questioning what I do as a teacher, and how I could do it better. | |
| 20:08:00 | Q1: I hear ya @casey219! Sometimes flexibliity means the tables are turned. Teachers become learners & learners become teachers #FLNchat | |
| 20:08:00 | @flnchat I missed Q1 - what are we chatting about? #flnchat | |
| 20:08:00 | #flnchat as long as there is no @ we are in chat right? | |
| 20:9:00 | @casey219 Aren't mistakes the best way to learn? #FLNchat We have to invite imperfection into our practice. | |
| 20:9:00 | @HenderJL you go girl!!! #FLNchat | |
| 20:9:00 | @ritastevens Those generally accepted rules are pretty flexible! #flnchat | |
| 20:9:00 | Q0 Ian MacLeod Acting DEan AA&NM at NSCC (apologies for the late intro :-))#flnchat | |
| 20:13:00 | @casey219 As long as you use the hashtag #FLNchat that's part of the chat. It doesn't matter where the @ is at. | |
| 20:13:00 | #FLNchat Forgot the Q1. I think lack of flexibility leads to burn out. It's harder to remain constant than to change. | |
| 20:13:00 | RT @flnchat: Q1 :: Following from the last #flnchat, how do we invite flexibility into our practice? | |
| 20:13:00 | @stewarka soooo true!!! we get stuck #FLNchat | |
| 20:14:00 | @stewarka being INflexible takes work & energy :) #FLNchat | |
| 20:14:00 | @randommind @henderjl Way to go! #flnchat | |
| 20:14:00 | Q1 Flexibility has to be fostered and encouraged - right up there with an environment conducive to change and innovation #flnchat | |
| 20:14:00 | @hondomac We can edit this all so it looks nice and smooth in the transcript. :) #FLNchat | |
| 20:15:00 | Q1: I heard something interesting a few weeks ago ... we need to be accepting of people who are different #FLNchat | |
| 20:15:00 | :-) @bitdepth - thanks :-) - full time job if you want my tweets to look smooth :-) #flnchat | |
| 20:15:00 | @stewarka That's a great point! It's easier to grow than to stagnate. #FLNchat | |
| 20:15:00 | Q1: Sometimes being flexible means we're different ... we're a bit on the outside #FLNchat | |
| 20:15:00 | #flnchat It's also a CYA thang. The more flexible you are, the less the dog can eat people's homework. :) | |
| 20:15:00 | @stewarka good one!!! #FLNchat | |
| 20:15:00 | RT @bitdepth: @hondomac We can edit this all so it looks nice and smooth in the transcript. :) #FLNchatYou bet! | |
| 20:16:00 | @randommind that's part of our diversity - acceptance :-) #flnchat | |
| 20:16:00 | Q1: accepting of those who "don't get it" too? those unwilling to explore? those who prevent the rest of us? for how long? #flnchat | |
| 20:16:00 | RT @stewarka: #flnchat It's also a CYA thang. The more flexible you are, the less the dog can eat people's homework. :) | |
| 20:16:00 | Sometimes i find learners don't know what to do with the flexibility - they are used to fences in 'school' #flnchat | |
| 20:17:00 | @stewarka Rigid minimal structure works well. Set up some wide boundaries and explore within it. Keeps it interesting. #FLNchat | |
| 20:17:00 | Nancy Pelley - Kingstec - Q1: I think we need to have patience and understanding for all learning styles #flnchat | |
| 20:17:00 | @N_Pelley hi nancy!! #FLNchat | |
| 20:17:00 | @stewarka Love it! #flnchat | |
| 20:17:00 | @randommind It's embracing diversity as well as protecting and encouraging it. #FLNchat | |
| 20:18:00 | @stewarka - good point - always need to stay one step ahead of the dog... #flnchat | |
| 20:18:00 | accepting those who resist for how long - great question!!!!! #flnchat | |
| 20:18:00 | Welcome to those that are joining now. Jump right in and join the chat! Q2 coming now... #flnchat | |
| 20:19:00 | @bitdepth - that's the key - building the environment where it all flourishes #flnchat | |
| 20:19:00 | @N_Pelley Welcome, Nancy! Patience is so important. Taking a breath and pausing is often the best strategy. #FLNchat | |
| 20:20:00 | @casey219 #flnchat Yeah, and you have to be flexible enough to deal with that - give them a few fences ... to start with. | |
| 20:20:00 | #flnchat Q2: purely selfish ask-how can a library be flexible & support you in your efforts? | |
| 20:20:00 | @lkamsin Change can be hard. Many times it's striking the balance between running wild and standing still. #FLNchat | |
| 20:20:00 | @lkamsin is taking over! :) #FLNchat | |
| 20:21:00 | Q2 Great question and love who is asking it! I think libraries need to seize the information opportunity that they now have #flnchat | |
| 20:21:00 | @casey219 I agree - we need to set the environment for flexibility because many students struggle with it #flnchat | |
| 20:21:00 | @stewarka @casey219 People don't need to know that the fences aren't sturdy and they are easy to jump over at first. #FLNchat | |
| 20:21:00 | @lkamsin make it all digital! I want access to the library to be just as easy as tweeting #FLNchat | |
| 20:22:00 | Q2 There is a huge opportunity now fro librarians to have a huge role in information management, but te window is closing #flnchat | |
| 20:22:00 | @lkamsin You jumped over the fence with a great question! #FLNchat | |
| 20:22:00 | @FLNchat #flnchat Q2: Provide options in assignments. | |
| 20:23:00 | Alrighty! let's go with that! #flnchat Q2: purely selfish ask-how can a library be flexible & support you in your efforts? | |
| 20:23:00 | @stewarka tell us more :) options? what would work for you? #FLNchat | |
| 20:23:00 | @lkamsin - become the arbiters of information gathering, processing, and use #flnchat | |
| 20:23:00 | @FLNchat gotta love the flexibility :) #FLNchat | |
| 20:23:00 | RT @hondomac: Q2 There is a huge opportunity now fro librarians to have a huge role in information management, but te window is closing #flnchat | |
| 20:23:00 | @stewarka #FLNchat Options in assignments make a huge difference and make it easier for us all. | |
| 20:24:00 | @FLNchat #flnchat Q2: Provide options for participation. Record sessions for those who can't be there (Elluminate). | |
| 20:24:00 | Q2 resource, learning space/ learning common #flnchat | |
| 20:24:00 | @lkamsin Q2: help us be more like YOU! so we know where the good stuff is & how you find it! #FLNchat | |
| 20:24:00 | @hondomac #flnchat The last online conference I went to - a librarian had the best session - on interactive media. It was great. | |
| 20:25:00 | Q@ Librarians should be the go-to folks fr any and all questions around information discovery, management and use #flnchat | |
| 20:25:00 | @lkamsin Q2: I love how libraries are evolving to be curators and guides to the diverse resources out there. Flexible guides! #FLNchat | |
| 20:25:00 | @hondomac I like the word "discovery" #FLNchat | |
| 20:25:00 | Q2 I mean :-) #flnchat | |
| 20:25:00 | Q2: Love the idea of options. But sometimes it makes for way more work (for me!!) #flnchat | |
| 20:26:00 | @bitdepth i heard @FLNchat call them network sherpas :) love that #FLNchat | |
| 20:26:00 | @HenderJL what would that look like? #FLNchat | |
| 20:27:00 | @stewarka @hondomac Librarians can provide valuable contexts where learning can happen. #FLNchat | |
| 20:27:00 | Q2 Discovery is the key there is simply too much information available today - needs a go-to person - the librarian! #flnchat | |
| 20:27:00 | @FLNchat we must be lazy flexible facilitators :) ... in a good way #FLNchat | |
| 20:27:00 | @bitdepth - great point! #flnchat | |
| 20:27:00 | @randommind #flnchat Participate in a forum or contribute to a wiki. Create a mobile app or a database project. Do one of these 3 things. | |
| 20:28:00 | RT @randommind: @FLNchat we must be lazy flexible facilitators :) ... in a good way #FLNchat | |
| 20:28:00 | @randommind Sorry - what would what look like? :-) #flnchat | |
| 20:28:00 | @randommind #flnchat - digitize/digital - you've heard re: google books court case & copyright police? open source still thin on ground | |
| 20:28:00 | RT @hondomac: Q2 Discovery is the key there is simply too much information available today - needs a go-to person - the librarian! #flnchat | |
| 20:28:00 | @stewarka very cool!! got an example? bring it to the curriculum institute this spring ... that's worth showing off! #FLNchat | |
| 20:29:00 | @randommind @FLNchat We must learn to abide like The Dude. Chill out and let the magic grow. #FLNchat | |
| 20:29:00 | Q2: Librarians rock! #flnchat | |
| 20:29:00 | @hondomac #flnchat love the idea of being an arbiter but many of us still in follow the pack mode | |
| 20:29:00 | @lkamsin - Google case - technology ahead of the law - again! My guess is 10 years from now the paper text book will be a rarity #flnchat | |
| 20:30:00 | @HenderJL sorry! what would a workplan with flexible options look like? I think it's a cool idea. #FLNchat | |
| 20:30:00 | @lkamsin @randommind It's easier to start with your own open resources. It's stuff from the past that is more of a challenge. #FLNchat | |
| 20:30:00 | @ritastevens Q2: Options = more work. Is there a way around this? #FLNChat Good point! | |
| 20:30:00 | Q2 - librarian's can be the guide to reliable and accurate information in the confusing online world - #flnchat | |
| 20:30:00 | @lkamsin - break away from the pack! The opportunity is slipping between your fingers... #flnchat | |
| 20:31:00 | RT @N_Pelley: Q2 - librarian's can be the guide to reliable and accurate information in the confusing online world - #flnchat | |
| 20:31:00 | @N_Pelley maybe that's us too, eh? we're like a safe landing point when we teach online #FLNchat | |
| 20:31:00 | @randommind #flnchat Q2: I've got an example. In my Windows Programming course, I gave bonus points for my students' mobile app. | |
| 20:31:00 | @ritastevens Only more work up front - once in place can actually be less work #flnchat | |
| 20:32:00 | how do options = more work. I don't understand... #flnchat | |
| 20:32:00 | RT @randommind: @N_Pelley maybe that's us too, eh? we're like a safe landing point when we teach online #FLNchat | |
| 20:32:00 | @stewarka @randommind Do it! Take it to the curriculum institute! #flnchat | |
| 20:32:00 | @stewarka can students design their own assignments if they want? #FLNchat | |
| 20:33:00 | @randommind #flnchat Q2: They were in an all-weekend-long Appathon, and developed Bovine Intervention! Now, they're into the playoffs! | |
| 20:33:00 | @casey219 Sometimes it takes a bit more time up front to define the options, but then it's a lot more flexible. #FLNchat | |
| 20:33:00 | @stewarka that's moooooving :) sorry ... bad bovine joke ... would LOVE to see more cross-campus programming ... possible? #FLNchat | |
| 20:34:00 | @randommind #flnchat I love it when they design their own assignments. But you have to be careful, 'cause their eyes r bigger than ... | |
| 20:34:00 | @randommind @stewarka why not? if it demonstrates learning outcomes and we can assess that... #flnchat | |
| 20:34:00 | #flnchat Q2-librns have how to expertise etc just need audience that values it - how can we make it "sexy" enough to get class time | |
| 20:34:00 | The grandboys want to make an app next March Break. they were inspired by y'all last #flnchat | |
| 20:34:00 | @randommind #flnchat ... their bellies! | |
| 20:34:00 | @ritastevens laziness is a virtue for flexible facilitators :) being flexible means it's ok to step to the side #FLNchat | |
| 20:35:00 | @randommind hope to see exactly that in the renewed IT program and others... #flnchat | |
| 20:35:00 | @randommind #flnchat Part of IT Renewal, baby! The wheels are already churning. | |
| 20:35:00 | @stewarka - then is our responsibility to support them to design effectively or demonstrate multiple outcomes in same assignment? #flnchat | |
| 20:35:00 | @lkamsin Oh-oh... I thought we were moving away from the sexy librarian stereotype ;-) #flnchat | |
| 20:35:00 | @stewarka I'd be dancing in the streets!!! #FLNchat | |
| 20:35:00 | Q2. My 8 year old says an online librarian will know a lot of facts and that could really help when she is doing her homework #flnchat | |
| 20:36:00 | @randommind lazy? no strong facilitation! :) #flnchat | |
| 20:36:00 | @randommind @ritastevens It's creating the space where learning can grow. That's flexible and wonderful. #FLNchat | |
| 20:37:00 | @lkamsin wow - makes me sad you can't get class time! Many of us should be getting you experts to facilitate when its called for #flnchat | |
| 20:37:00 | @randommind Bovine jokes ... I've heard them all. C'mon. Cows are funny! #flnchat | |
| 20:37:00 | #flnchat do we need to identify/codify the options or can they evolve & be used as created? | |
| 20:37:00 | @casey219 @stewarka I love the idea of supporting learners in them designing their own learning. That's the ultimate goal. #FLNchat | |
| 20:37:00 | @casey219 ha! :):) point taken #FLNchat | |
| 20:38:00 | @FLNchat that's just age LOL #flnchat | |
| 20:38:00 | @stewarka it's the mooooodle thing, eh? #FLNchat | |
| 20:38:00 | @lkamsin I like the idea of evolving and building as we go. It's more flexible that way. #FLNchat | |
| 20:38:00 | @randommind Q2: Let the learners take over. That's how they learn. #FLNchat | |
| 20:38:00 | @FLNChat - key is to have the courage to let learners have at least an equal say in their learning - do that and magic happens #flnchat | |
| 20:38:00 | I am getting so LOST in this conversation!! I can't keep up!! (But I'm cool with it ... loving the energy of all these ideas!) #FLNchat | |
| 20:39:00 | RT @N_Pelley: Q2. My 8 year old says an online librarian will know a lot of facts and that could really help when she is doing her homework #flnchat | |
| 20:39:00 | #flnchat Q3 flex options can be ideal way to allow for x course/program/school opps | |
| 20:39:00 | @FLNchat What kind of app do they want to make? #flnchat | |
| 20:39:00 | @FLNchat #flnchat Q3: Well, considering how inspired I get every time I talk to you guys, I don't see why not! | |
| 20:39:00 | Congrats to the AVC folks - Great Canadian Appathon is a national competition... #flnchat | |
| 20:39:00 | @ritastevens @randommind Relinquishing control is a challenge for some, but it reaps great rewards and sparks more learning. #FLNchat | |
| 20:39:00 | RT @randommind: I am getting so LOST in this conversation!! I can't keep up!! (But I'm cool with it ... loving the energy of all these ideas!) #FLNchat | |
| 20:40:00 | RT @hondomac: Congrats to the AVC folks - Great Canadian Appathon is a national competition... #flnchat | |
| 20:40:00 | @hondomac we also need the support to let these things happen - learners taking over learner = anarchy to some #flnchat | |
| 20:40:00 | @randommind Try to be a bit more flexible. Relax. It's ok. :) #FLNchat | |
| 20:40:00 | RT @casey219: @hondomac we also need the support to let these things happen - learners taking over learning = anarchy to some #flnchat | |
| 20:41:00 | #FLNchat I think our drinking game should involve MOO references -- bovine or Moodle. **DRINK** | |
| 20:41:00 | @hondomac @FLNChat What an empowering concept! Education-learning in truest sense point of need, methodology... #flnchat | |
| 20:41:00 | @casey219 - not anarchy - it's coolness and I'll support anyone wanting to go there - it's where I live :-) #flnchat | |
| 20:41:00 | @FLNchat drink milk? :) #FLNchat | |
| 20:41:00 | RT @casey219: RT @casey219: @hondomac we also need the support to let these things happen - learners taking over learning = anarchy to some #flnchat | |
| 20:42:00 | @casey219 @hondomac hey, learning is messy, right? it doesn't fit in a neat box #FLNchat | |
| 20:42:00 | Let you in on a secret - don't tell anyone - give up content and an element of control and learning magic will happen!! #flnchat | |
| 20:42:00 | @randommind @FLNchat #flnchat mmmm white russian would go down nicely now | |
| 20:42:00 | @FLNchat Q3: We need to get out of our cubicles, disciplines and campuses and share and collaborate. It will be fun and we'll grow. #FLNchat | |
| 20:43:00 | @hondomac that's the worst kept secret in the world :):) just sayin' #FLNchat | |
| 20:43:00 | @FLNchat #flnchat Q3: Our campus is small enuf that we share a lot of ideas. Eating in the same lunchroom helps. Sounds stoopid, eh? | |
| 20:43:00 | @hondomac Great point. Content is static, learning is dynamic and it happens in a community. #FLNchat | |
| 20:43:00 | RT @hondomac: Let you in on a secret - dont tell anyone - give up content and an element of control and learning magic will happen! #flnchat | |
| 20:44:00 | Q3: we need places where we can get together -- chat, build stuff, have fun -- on a regular basis #FLNchat | |
| 20:44:00 | @lkamsin aren't you a white russian? #flnchat | |
| 20:44:00 | @randommind - then we need to remind folks of that :-)!... #flnchat | |
| 20:44:00 | RT We need to get out of our cubicles, disciplines and campuses and share and collaborate. It will be fun and well grow. #flnchat | |
| 20:44:00 | @FLNchat #flnchat Q3: I get a lot of ideas from other schools' online stuff, too. Don't want to re-invent the wheel if I don't have to. | |
| 20:44:00 | I need a picture. I look like an egg head. :( :( #FLNChat | |
| 20:44:00 | RT @stewarka: @FLNchat #flnchat Q3: Our campus is small enuf that we share a lot of ideas. Eating in the same lunchroom helps. Sounds stoopid, eh? | |
| 20:44:00 | @randommind we need the time too... #flnchat | |
| 20:44:00 | @casey219 @hondomac #flnchat Hear, Hear! support organizationally at ALL levels to allow the exp (surely enough lit exists?) to occur | |
| 20:45:00 | @stewarka Eating in the same lunchroom is soo important. We have lost that synergy at my campus. #flnchat | |
| 20:45:00 | @stewarka was just pulling together some examples today & couldn't believe how much cool stuff has been done by online NSCCers #FLNchat | |
| 20:45:00 | @FLNchat @stewarka we don't have common lunch... #flnchat | |
| 20:45:00 | Q3 would a college "network" where folks could share be a good start as a meeting place? #flnchat | |
| 20:45:00 | @casey219 ditto on the time!!! & time to learn, lurk & get comfy, too #FLNchat | |
| 20:45:00 | @randommind #flnchat Q3: Our virtual water cooler was fun, and so is this tweeting stuff ... something ongoing like that. | |
| 20:45:00 | @randommind Having spaces (real and virtual) are essential to gather and share & collaborate. Regular (and extraordinary) meetings. #FLNchat | |
| 20:46:00 | @stewarka @FLNchat #flnchat nope just basic & we often overlook the easy/obvious it's watercooler chat best since free ranging,top of mind | |
| 20:46:00 | @stewarka @hondomac we need something .... have you heard of Bobbi D-C's idea of the learning village? great concept #FLNchat | |
| 20:46:00 | @hondomac yes however at this stage i fear it would be the same ol's - not that i don't love yas...we need a way to recruit #flnchat | |
| 20:46:00 | @ritastevens We can help you get a picture :-) We are flexible! #flnchat | |
| 20:46:00 | Q3 One of the best conference workshops ever - communications teachers share best practices - every year at APACT. #flnchat | |
| 20:46:00 | @hondomac I think that it needs to be smaller than a college and bigger than a classroom. #FLNchatGrowth has to be organic. | |
| 20:46:00 | @FLNchat #flnchat Q3: Right now, our lunchroom is becoming so crowded that we need more space. It's wonderful! And we talk shop a lot. | |
| 20:47:00 | @hondomac Q3: A college network like this? #flnchat | |
| 20:47:00 | @randommind - just the big picture if it, but think the Learning Village has potential - we need something sooner than later #flnchat | |
| 20:47:00 | @stewarka I think that's what makes AVC such a cool place ... feels like a family out there #FLNchat | |
| 20:47:00 | @randommind @hondomac No, what's a learning village? #flnchat | |
| 20:47:00 | @HenderJL Sharing best practices is so much fun. Learning happens so wonderfully when success is shared. #FLNchat | |
| 20:48:00 | And I think librarians have a huge role to play @lkamsin #flnchat | |
| 20:48:00 | @hondomac #flnchat it's hard to find 1 that works:schedules,workload etc. think sharepoint; virtual H20 cooler etc Oops did I say 1? LOL | |
| 20:48:00 | @stewarka a learning village is a place where we go to learn ... CCEDP is there, the Water Cooler might be there ... #FLNchat | |
| 20:48:00 | @FLNChat - this is definitely a piece of it #flnchat | |
| 20:48:00 | @stewarka it's a learning community -- online & off #FLNchat | |
| 20:49:00 | @stewarka when Bobbi showed us the sketches, my favourite place was the cafe :) imagine what it could be ... maybe the lunchroom? #FLNchat | |
| 20:49:00 | I think it has to be virtual, simply so that it is always there and available and open for business #flnchat | |
| 20:49:00 | I am always amazed at what I learn from colleagues when we get together - and it is not often enough! #flnchat | |
| 20:49:00 | i would like my stuff to be in one place. Nings, FB, Twitter, Yammer - i can't stay on it. who knows how to align them all? #flnchat | |
| 20:49:00 | NSCC Drop In and Learn Centre? #flnchat | |
| 20:50:00 | @hondomac I think so too ... hard to do physically with 13 campuses #FLNchat | |
| 20:50:00 | @randommind #flnchat A single source repository would be good ... we could go there to get ideas for nscc online stuff. | |
| 20:50:00 | @hondomac maybe like the Thursday night thing we used to do in SL? maybe like the mailing list we had going for a while? #FLNchat | |
| 20:50:00 | @randommind Is it a physical space? #flnchat | |
| 20:50:00 | @lkamsin @hondomac The key is to have things that have limits in time and space and then keep moving. Build and learn and go. #FLNchat | |
| 20:51:00 | Q4: Time for final comments as we wrap up. And don't forget shameless plugs -- like @stewarka 's students! #flnchat | |
| 20:51:00 | RT @hondomac: I think it has to be virtual, simply so that it is always there and available and open for business #flnchat | |
| 20:51:00 | @stewarka nope ... it's just a concept now ... but we could build it ??? #FLNchat | |
| 20:51:00 | @FLNchat where does the time go?? #FLNchat | |
| 20:51:00 | as we think about this lets remember the focus = flexibility #flnchat | |
| 20:52:00 | @FLNchat #flnchat I'm just so darn proud of my students! Gawd love their nerdy little hearts. And it's all them ... not me. | |
| 20:52:00 | @randommind - I think those are both great ideas along with a common repository like @stewarkasuggests, it's a mix of a lot things #flnchat | |
| 20:52:00 | @casey219 I'd like to see something built by the community it serves ... the ultimate flexibility #FLNchat | |
| 20:52:00 | Q3: here's a thought... what about options for a learning village? I heard lots of hints! #flnchat | |
| 20:52:00 | @randommind seriously!!! fantastic :) connect soon!! #flnchat | |
| 20:53:00 | @hondomac It's not really one monolithic space, it's the network of people. We keep it together, the space is with us. #FLNchat | |
| 20:53:00 | @casey219 maybe we should connect with Bobbi & get something going ... @FLNchat maybe invite Bobbi to the next #FLNchat? | |
| 20:53:00 | @FLNChat - that's the key to a village - the baker, the blacksmith, the fishmonger... #flnchat | |
| 20:53:00 | SL certainly has an appeal. #flnchat | |
| 20:53:00 | RT @bitdepth: @hondomac It's not really one monolithic space, it's the network of people. We keep it together, the space is with us. #FLNchat | |
| 20:53:00 | @randommind @casey219 @FLNchat whos bobbi? #flnchat | |
| 20:53:00 | @bitdepth that is so so so right on!! #flnchat | |
| 20:53:00 | @hondomac a real apprenticeship model, huh? :):) #FLNchat | |
| 20:54:00 | @FLNchat #flnchat That would be great. Could we borrow from Bobbi? | |
| 20:54:00 | #flnchat any way to record in SL so when others arr after meeting they still have access & can leave their contribution? | |
| 20:54:00 | @casey219 Rewriting & editing & combining & recombining is an important part of the process. Important things won't be lost. #FLNchat | |
| 20:54:00 | @HenderJL SL does have appeal, for some. Again I think it is about linked options #flnchat | |
| 20:54:00 | @randommind - why not? It's worked for thousands of years - but apprenticeship and sharing and collaboration :-) #flnchat | |
| 20:54:00 | @stewarka maybe Bobbi could come explain the concept ... or maybe go to Elluminate for this one ... it's very visual #FLNchat | |
| 20:55:00 | #flnchat I volunteer to be baker LOL (half baked, overbaked & just right!) | |
| 20:55:00 | RT @FLNchat: @HenderJL SL does have appeal, for some. Again I think it is about linked options #flnchat | |
| 20:55:00 | Q2: I like the idea of a common repository. From someone who does not have input, I would like to see it organized. :) #FLNchat | |
| 20:55:00 | @lkamsin yup... there are lots of tools to connect SL with "real" tools #flnchat | |
| 20:55:00 | @lkamsin you bring the chocolate pastries, ok? I saw what you got at the market on Saturday! #FLNchat | |
| 20:55:00 | @randommind @hondomac It's a human thing. We share learning and that passes the learning on. #FLNchat | |
| 20:56:00 | @lkamsin - can record transcripts in SL... or at east copy them and post them a la our Google Group #flnchat | |
| 20:56:00 | @ritastevens I think you just volunteered ? :):) (notice how smooth I am?) #FLNchat | |
| 20:56:00 | @randommind who's bobbi #flnchat | |
| 20:56:00 | Let's invite others to join us here as a start. #flnchat | |
| 20:56:00 | @hondomac @randommind Q2: hmm... I think you're on to something great here. #FLNchat | |
| 20:56:00 | @bitdepth @randommind - you got it - we just need t figure out how to get EVERYONE to share! #flnchat | |
| 20:56:00 | @FLNchat @HenderJL #flnchat linked options definitely the way to go | |
| 20:57:00 | @FLNchat ok. maybe we can all try to bring someone new on for the next chat. #Flnchat | |
| 20:57:00 | @ritastevens A place to meet before going on journeys. A jumping off point for adventure. #FLNchat | |
| 20:57:00 | @ritastevens What is it we're on to? I'm lost! :-) #flnchat | |
| 20:58:00 | Yup... each one bring one! #flnchat in 2 weeks | |
| 20:58:00 | @randommind you're smooth???? #FLNChat | |
| 20:59:00 | @FLNChat - Our mission... should we choose to accept it.. bring one person with us to nest chat #flnchat | |
| 20:59:00 | @ritastevens I think I am :) #FLNchat | |
| 20:59:00 | Q4: wrap up and shameless plugs #flnchat | |
| 20:59:00 | @hondomac Mission ACCEPTED! #FLNchat | |
| 20:59:00 | @FLNchat Good ideer. See you in 2 weeks. Same bat time, same bat channel. #flnchat | |
| 20:59:00 | @hondomac @randommind We can't get everyone to share. Only the cool people need to share. #FLNchat | |
| 20:59:00 | I promise not to self destruct in 5 seconds! :-) #flnchat | |
| 20:59:00 | @stewarka you made me guffaw :) #FLNchat | |
| 220:59:00 | @FLNchat Lorraine - sounds like a great way to continue building these ideas. Thanks all - see you soon. #flnchat | |
| @HenderJL See you Janice! #FLNchat | ||
| @bitdepth - maybe if the cool kids share others will follow? The cool kids need to be noisy about sharing #flnchat | ||
| Q4: Good night everyone. The archive will be on the blog shortly. #flnchat | ||
| thanks so much @FLNchat for hosting another fabulous #FLNchat | ||
| 21:01:00 | see you in two weeks everyone! #FLNchat | |
| 21:01:00 | Night All! Thanks for this - too cool! #flnchat | |
| 21:01:00 | and thanks to your co-hosts, @bitdepth & @HenderJL #FLNchat | |
| 21:01:00 | Good night and thank you. #FLNChat | |
| 21:02:00 | #flnchat any interest in being in world while at next chat? | |
| 21:02:00 | @FLNchat Thanks everyone! The time flew by. #FLNchat Keep the community going, keep thinking and sharing and learning in flexible ways. | |
| 21:02:00 | @FLNChat - thank you and thanks to your co-hosts, @bitdepth & @HenderJL #FLNchat | |
| 21:02:00 | @lkamsin holy multi-tasking batman! :) #FLNchat | |
| 21:03:00 | #flnchat toodles all - thanks for positive end to day | |
| 21:03:00 | @lkamsin - works fro me, but we'd have t get everyone there :-) #flnchat | |
| 21:03:00 | @lkamsin - Toodles yourself! #flnchat | |
| 21:05:00 | @randommind just saying - think pace of tweets could freak some especially when system is !@$# laggy & it's a "realer" community #flnchat | |
| 21:05:00 | Many thanks to @bitdepth and @HenderJL -- we are all in this together! #flnchat | |
| 09:07:00 | #flnchat - so any ideas why tweet chat seems more challenging than chat in SL? is it extra tag? is it waiting for responses? | |
| 09:08:00 | @lkamsin I think it is because there are so many speaking at once. #flnchat | |
| 09:09:00 | @lkamsin @randommind I think that we feel comfortable in different places. The pace here seems a bit slow to me at times. #FLNchat |
